I just finished the graphic novel "Maus" by art speigleman, which was a fantastically haunting story which I imagine was quite difficult for Mr. Speigleman to write. I also recently read "The Great Gatsby." It took me far too long to actually read that book, but now that I have, I love it

The Art of Deception by Kevin Mitnick.

Re: What are you reading?
 

In the Garden of Beast by Erik Larson. I love Devil In The White City. This is decent so far, but kinda dry. Hope it picks up.

One Second After by William R. Forstchen.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I'm currently reading Beyond Tantra: Healing Through Taoist Sacred Sex. This seems like a really basic set and setting and couples communication book. So far (about halfway through) I haven't encountered much in the way of actual meditative practice. Hopefully there will be some deeper information further in the book.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I finished a few good books recently:

Salem's Lot - Stephen King

Re: What are you reading?
 

Savage Wars of Peace by Max Boot

Re: What are you reading?
 

Just finished - "By Order of The President" by W.E.B. Griffin. It's the first book in a series called "The Presidential Agent."
If any of you are Griffin fans, readers of his older series; Brotherhood of War, The Corps, Badge of Honor - then his newer series' where his son is doing more of the writing are disappointments,

Now reading "First Team" by Larry Bond. It's OK.

"The Swerve, How the World Became Modern" by Stephen Greenblatt
Describes the "discovery" in the 1500s of ancient pagan roman and greek texts - and specifically the rational humanist philosophy - and how those texts and that philosophy influenced the renaissance.

Anyone on here use the GoodReads app? If so, we should be friends and then we can read the reviews of the books we read.

Finished up Blood Lines by Karen Travis now onto Tempest by Troy Denning and Black Order by James Rollins.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Currently reading The Wire in the Blood by Val McDermid, one of my favorite mystery writers. It seems to me that the best mystery authors for the past 10 years are female and British. Probably just my perception but who knows.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Finally reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I really enjoy David Baldacci's stuff. I'm working on Sean King/Michelle Maxwell series currently

Re: What are you reading?
 

Just finished "Under the Dome" by Stephen King. Really enjoyed it.

Re: What are you reading?
 

LOL sounds as exciting as "Introducing Windows Server 2012 (RTM Edition)" which is my current assignment. If I see the words "cloud computing" one more time I may hurl the thing right through the window.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Started & finished "Ready,Player One" in about 2 days. Great book. Anyone who played video games or grew up in the 80s would love it.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I'm 10 books deep into the Robert Jordan series Wheel of Time. This is my second time through this series, and last time I stopped at book 10. It is such a long, boring book. Pushing my way through this one so I can get through tot he ending.

Re: What are you reading?
 

That one is on my short list.

Re: What are you reading?
 

You will have a little wait -- the last book is scheduled to be available on January 8, 2013.

I am planning to reread the entire series after I have the final book. I lost count of how many times I have reread the series...

Second Son (A Jack Reacher Kindle short) by Lee Child
Deep Down (A Jack Reacher Kindle short) by Lee Child

Re: What are you reading?
 

:tu I really enjoyed this one. Once you get by the weirdness of it, it's a great book.

Re: What are you reading?
 

I suck at girls. It's by the same guy that wrote sh*t my dad says. So far so good

I liked it.

Re: What are you reading?
 

The Necronaut: Michael R. Pilinski
Not a great book. I'm very tempted to do an edit and send it back to the author/publisher. The story line is actually kinda cool. The language feels like a smarter than average 10th grader wrote it with the Thesaurus right next to him...."Lets see how many big words I can put in here". With an edit and some tightening up, this could be a decent book.

Re: What are you reading?
 

Lee Child does a pretty good job of keeping a story moving along. Some authors will get bogged down and then not know how to work their way out of the "bog"...

The best thing for me is that these books are not deep (don't require a lot of extra thought) and are very entertaining -- makes it easy to put down and pick up again (convenient for reading in whatever timeslots I have available). Good Escape reading :D

Re: What are you reading?
 

That is what 90% of my reading is.

Game of Thrones. Very captivating read.
